笔者寻访过北京不少古树名木,听过不少树的事儿。这次国家就要评选国树了,别的知道不多,就拿北京的银杏树说说理儿,就当投它一票。 北京有多少银杏树,可能有关部门早调查过。1990年,北京市统计,市区300年以上的古银杏有72棵,100-300年的有129棵。同全国现有百年以上的20万株左右银杏树数目相比,201株似乎不多,但它们生长在北京这样一座历史文化名城,自古以来的人文荟萃之地,许多树与北京的历史紧密相连,这身份就非同小可了。 I visited many old trees in Beijing, heard a lot of tree thing. This time, the country is about to appraise the country tree. If you do not know much about it, take the ginkgo tree in Beijing and tell you that you should vote for it. How many ginkgo tree Beijing, may have been investigated earlier departments. In 1990, according to Beijing’s statistics, there were 72 ancient ginkgo trees over 300 years in urban areas and 129 trees in 100-300 years. Compared with the number of about 200,000 or so ginkgo trees in the country that have existed for more than 100 years, there seem to be a small number of 201 plants. However, they have grown in a historical and cultural city like Beijing, a place where humanities and cultures have been mixed since ancient times. Many trees are closely linked with Beijing’s history , This identity is not trivial.
